There's an ugly leftover in certified_strip_bound: `box1 = acb(arb((re_lo * 0 + 1) - re_hi / 2 if False else arb("1.625"), "0.125"), ...)` — that's convoluted dead code from my drafting. Clean it up: box1 = acb(arb("1.625", "0.125"), arb("0", "5.125")). Also re_lo/re_hi/im_hi become unused — remove. Let me fix that before testing. Also check: `arb(repr(t))` for t = k*5e-5 float — repr gives full float precision; the grid point t as float64 vs exact k/20000: the float is within 1e-16 of the intended rational — fine (the certificate covers a grid arbitrarily close to the intended one; the Lipschitz allowance covers between-grid regardless of tiny float shifts). Quick smoke test first: run a tiny inline version of the strip bound + a couple hundred grid points to validate M and timing, before the full detached run.
Cleaning up a drafting leftover in the strip-bound function before testing.
